Wow!! I awoke this morning to find an email that was from a really wonderful blog. I have been featured on "By our hands" blog. I can honestly say I had no clue. WOW!!
It reminded me of how excited I was to get my first award from "Wendy Froud" The designer for "Yoda" On the "Empire strikes back" movie. Wendy's award was the pivotal point to my encouragement to continue to sculpt and do art. Here was that wonderful award.

I am so excited!! I have been featured on a wonderful blog called "By our hands". They surprised me this morning in my email. I was pretty gobsmacked. But very proud at the same time. Wow, what a feeling. It felt so wickedly wonderful to be thought of.

I know it dosen't sound like much, but when I won my first "Wendy Froud" Award I was almost in tears.Okay I'm done being wired. LOL

I have been working my wicked magic in the studio this month for sure. I think the glitter and glue is now a permanent part of the Wicked Studio, LOL. I have a fed-dish for the Vintage Halloween as you can see. I admire several other artist and soak up the creative juices from their work's of art. I have tones more in store for this venture I have begun so sit down, hold on, and brace yourself Effie. LOL

Okay, I told ya I have been working in the studio and I have! Sewing my fingers to the bone. I want to show you some of the new primitive dolls that I done using a number of patterns by several artist. Getting into Prim has been sooo much fun for me. So I hope you like and let me know what you think.

My new sewing machine is in the shop...so I wiped out my good ol trusty Singer! Works like a charm.
If you just cant live without something let me know...I don't post on eBay anymore and my Etsy shop is getting some work done.

My hubby, My Yorkie "Britney", My son Corey and his beautiful date to Senior prom, "she's a foreign exchange student from Germany. Her name is Jana". And My sweetheart of a son Dalton. He's my special boy. I have my cat Salem but couldn't find the pictures to post. Will do so soon. He's pretty cool!

There has been allot of cackling going around here. The studio is buzzing with fabric, paint and trims. I feel like I don't have enough space for all my ghouls. Witches and pumpkin men are on the menu today, then more Primitive pumpkin dolls to come. Black cats, skeletons, some stitching, and just plane creepy Halloween decor for the festive Halloween lovers.
I have changed gears and stopped totally on sculpting my more detailed dolls of fantasy. But, don't get me wrong, I still love the fantasy world too!
I hope to get enough done for some shows. I cant wait to get back to meeting the people that adore my work.
Until next I write again.

Well...there has been new news around here! "I'm a new grandma"!!! I know right...OMG! My NEW granddaughter was born January 23, 2011. I was told about it on my 10th Anniversary February 14th. Needless to say, we were shocked, and excited at the same time. We don't have any other grandchildren so she is our first! Her name is "Sadie Jade Marie" And she is gorgeous!
